There is no shortage of questionable contacts on corners. That between Larsonneur and Höjbjerg, in the first quarter of an hour ofOM-Saint-Etienne
Contested on Saturday afternoon, was quite clear. By trying to capture the ball struck by Bennacer, the goalkeeper of the Greens went to hit the Marseille midfielder, guilty of any illicit gesture. On this kick, the head of Balerdi found the nets opposing (1-0, 11th).

Mr. Kherradji logically granted the goal before being died by his colleagues from the Var. The referee of this 22nd day meeting went to the screen and reversed the decision, despite the idle showing no manifest fault of the Danish international. Höjbjerg, in the duel with a Stéphanois player, would have been wrong not to get rid of to let Larsonneur maneuver. Simply impossible.
